Default RE: Oil Pressure

How many miles on this vehicle because if it has high miles chances are your oil pump could be startin to go bad. The bearings could be getting worn a little also. Even though its a very minimal space the space is too big for specification for oil to flow efficientlycausing the pressure to jump back n forth on the gauge. Or the gauge itself needs to be replaced.
